Notes
Baroque Era. Duet Guitar. Drop D tuning. 3/8 time signature. Key of E minor. 3 pages 31 bars.
This is a dance-like three-part variation in 3/8 time. The same sixteenth note figuration is continuously employed and variously exchanged between each of the three voices. This variation incorporates the rhythmic model of variation 13 (complementary exchange of quarter and sixteenth notes) with variations 1 and 2 (syncopations).
